Signed over the summer of 2010, Dave is one of the more experienced members of the squad. Can play anywhere down the left–flank, he was one of the very few true left–footers available to manager Daniel Bower. Likes to take on his man, and overlap with the winger, Earnshaw is also solid in the tackle and quite tall for a left–back. Appointed as an assistant manager of in 2011, he has more recently turned out at centre-back and scored his first goal in 2016.
